See main article: Freestyle skiing at the 2018 Winter Olympics – Qualification. The top 30 athletes in the Olympic quota allocation list qualified, with a maximum of four athletes per National Olympic Committee (NOC) allowed. All athletes qualifying must also have placed in the top 30 of a FIS World Cup event or the FIS Freestyle Ski and Snowboarding World Championships 2017 during the qualification period (July 1, 2016 to January 21, 2018) and also have a minimum of 50 FIS points to compete.

Elizabeth Swaney, who represented Hungary, qualified for the Olympics using "a loophole", by attending many World Cup events and just finishing the runs without falling. This has been called a "mockery" and her being labelled as a "scammer" by some people, while being seen by some people as "[a person who has] put in the time and effort to be here" by others.[6]
